If I was Barney Rubble

I reckon the first time Fred said “Yabba Dabba Doo” in front of me I’d have been like “what the fuck are you on about, mate?”

Do you think Barney Rubble ever thought it was funny that he was called Rubble and worked at a quarry?

All I’m saying is the makers of Captain Caveman are very lucky guys

Reckon I’ve probably seen all 20 episodes (I believe there were actually only 20) over the years but - and I take no pleasure in saying this - at no point did I ever have a gay old time.

Very easy to say this in hindsight, but you don’t really know how you’d react at the time

In the language of the Stone People, this means “I am in great pain, please help me.”

I think if I saw a man, dressed in what is essentially an orange dressing gown, a tatty tie and little else, walking down the road carrying wood, stone and fabric fashioned into a makeshift stone age car, pretending he was driving it, I’d think to myself, yes, the gentrification of the north by migrating Londoners probably has gone too far

I always associate Barney Rubble with this home video from Christmas where I’m three or four and I’m absolutely fucking buzzing at this Barney Rubble bath toy and I’m getting right in the camera going “IT’S BARNEY!” and when I leave the frame you just hear me excitedly yelling “HE CAN STAND UP”
